Wilson Borough police Chief Steven Parkansky Jr. said Marie Shafer was traveling south this morning on South 22nd Street, but lost control of her dark blue Chevrolet Cavalier. Shafer struck a utility pole and two trees after South 22nd becomes Warrior Lane, before her heavily damaged car came to a rest facing north, according to Parkansky.

The chief said Shafer suffered minor injuries in the wreck and was transported to St. Luke's University Hospital in Fountain Hill. The crash remains under investigation and police aren't certain what caused Shafer to lose control of her car, Parkansky said.
